Issue installing puppet on centos 6.5

Previously I had been installing puppet on my centos 6.5 instances with the following code

# Install & configure puppet 
rpm -ivh http://yum.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs-release-el-6.noarch.rpm
yum -y install puppet

I am now getting the following error:

Retrieving http://yum.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs-release-el-6.noarch.rpm
curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found
error: skipping http://yum.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs-release-el-6.noarch.rpm - transfer failed

I check the URL, and indeed this file does not appear to be there anymore. Has puppet dropped their support for centos 6.5? I'm running version 3.X of puppet, and I don't think the code will run on later versions.

The original URL that I was using was later restored.

The problem here is that Puppet renamed themselves from Puppetlabs some years ago. They propagated this name change into their code as well. You need to update the rpm retrieval to: http://yum.puppet.com/puppet-release-el-6.noarch.rpm.

rpm -ivh http://yum.puppet.com/puppet-release-el-6.noarch.rpm
